Usage without trigger

Yes, it is. You don't need to invoke the {{dropdown.trigger}} component to make the dropdown work. The yielded
dropdown has actions you can invoke from any other item.

Sometimes you just cannot achieve what you want with this approach, so you need to step down and wire
things yourself.

If you invoke the open or toggle action from say, a button, the dropdown is going to open and will take
as the element to be anchored to element with data-ebd-id="{{dropdown.uniqueId}}-trigger".

What kind of things can you do with this?

By example, you can open or close the component when an item is clicked but make the dropdown attach itself to an entirely
different item in the page.

Let's create an input with a button. When that button is clicked the drodown will open below the input, not
not below the button that you clicked.

Result

Remember that almost always you will want to use the provided trigger because it takes care of
all the A11y, bindings and classes for you, but when you can't it's good to know that you can still
use your own markup and wire things together yourself.
